Manufacture paper, glass, and textiles
Shape plastics
What is heat?
A form of energy
What is a measure of the amount of energy transferred?
Work
What is the force a falling object can exert when it falls?
Positional potential energy
What is the energy stored in food, batteries, or fuels?
Chemical energy
What is the energy an object has due to its motion?
Kinetic energy
The movement of what is a type of kinetic energy?
Particles
What is kinetic energy of particles and potential energy?
Internal energy
How is energy measured?
Joules
Heat is the —— energy transferred from one object to another as a result of the difference in —— between the two objects.
Internal, temperature
What is the average measure of kinetic energy possessed by moving particles.
Temperature
More particle movement = ——- temperature
High
Less particle movement = —— temperature
Low
What happens when a hot substance comes in contact with a cold substance? Why?
They reach the same temperature because the heat from the hot object is transferred to the cold object.
